Nocerina, after second place behind newly promoted Cavese in Serie C, could start again from many former Messina players. The Campanian is in pole position for the position of sporting director Cosimo D’Eboli, fresh from the experience with Paganese, and looking for a new promotion among the professionals. The candidacy of the former Melfi coach is strong for the bench Raffaele Novelliwho four seasons ago won the C right on the banks of the Strait and then ruled Lamezia and Prato. A very few seasons ago: Cosimo D’Eboli, known as Cocchino, and Raffaele Novelli, as manager and coach respectively, return to work together and bring the Messina in C.
Last year it went differently: an almost sabbatical year for the player from Eboli and exemption in Prato (along with Bolzan and Pastore) for the player from Salerno from Pastena. But they will come to Nocera to win, according to the program drawn up by the company (4 out of 6 members will relaunch the challenge, starting with the confirmation proposed to the general director Prete): D’Eboli, 65 years old in July, as an opponent against Paganese has never been underestimated , On the contrary. He’s an old fox, he started with the amateur market on the Concord ship in Salerno together with Carlo Vitiello, Sergio Caputo, Sergio Picarone, Gerardo Iuliano and Peppe Scala: they invented CA.DEB (from the initials of Caputo and D’Eboli). Cocchino was responsible for a large part of the Paganese miracle, that is, 16 years in a row among the professionals.
For Novelli it would be a return to Nocera. In fact, as a footballer he was in that formidable team led by Ezio Volpi which won C2 by storm in 1986.
He started in Switzerland and then continued in Italy with Melfi, Salernitana, Manfredonia, Foggia, Sorrento, Pro Patria, Genoa Primavera, Barletta, Vigor Lamezia, Aversa Normanna, Pau in Francia, Messina, Lamezia and Prato.
He would arrive in Nocera bringing with him all his most trusted collaborators, namely Marco Ciardiello (assistant coach), Alessandro Russo (athletic trainer), Enrico Limone (goalkeeper trainer).
